Dude, once you're in the car, you're allowed to take your bike helmet off. Otherwise you look like you'll be playing with the safety scissors when you get back to the hotel.

Nibali looks at home on the cobbles, while the other contenders are rapidly falling behind as they ride far more gingerly. Particularly Contador...
Whoever wins this stage is going to have f**king earned it (and everyone else is going to be f**king unlucky)
I LOVE THE COBBLES AND THE MUD*
*of course there's no way in hell I'd ever ride them.

Three crashes in two days... and too frail. .. see his arms!
Tomalaris predicted this.
Frrome couldn't get on with Wiggins though and forced team to drop Wiggins who could have won the tour for Sky now.

Love them as well.
Que massive whinging from GC contenders post race even though the sprinters drag themselves over epic mountain passes day after day without even a whimper.

I thought it was cyclo-cross.

Let's not forget how soft Wiggins is in the wet. I think he would have lost a fair whack of time himself anyway.
I don't think Wiggins is particularly soft in the wet as much as he is downhill. Even moreso wet and downhill.
He did finish top 10 in Paris-Roubaix this year. Is able to hang on on the cobbles - at least in the dry.
